Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) occurring following allogeneic stem cell transplantation (aSCT) is a very rare condition. The underlying pathogenesis needs to be better defined. There is currently no systematic effort to exclude loss- or gain-of-function mutations in immune-related genes in stem cell donors. This is despite the fact that more than 100 inborn errors of immunity may cause or contribute to IBD. We have molecularly characterized a patient who developed fulminant inflammatory bowel disease following aSCT with stable 100% donor-derived hematopoiesis. A pathogenic c.A291G; p.I97M HAVCR2 mutation encoding the immune checkpoint protein TIM-3 was identified in the patient's blood-derived DNA, while being absent in DNA derived from the skin. TIM-3 expression was much decreased in the patient's serum, and in vitro-activated patient-derived T cells expressed reduced TIM-3 levels. In contrast, T cell-intrinsic CD25 expression and production of inflammatory cytokines were preserved. TIM-3 expression was barely detectable in the immune cells of the patient's intestinal mucosa, while being detected unambiguously in the inflamed and non-inflamed colon from unrelated individuals. In conclusion, we report the first case of acquired, "transplanted" insufficiency of the regulatory TIM-3 checkpoint linked to post-aSCT IBD.

Abstract
Mutations in CD46 predispose to atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS) with low penetrance. Factors driving immune-dysregulatory disease in individual mutation carriers have remained ill-understood. In addition to its role as a negative regulator of the complement system, CD46 modifies T cell-intrinsic metabolic adaptation and cytokine production. Comparative immunologic analysis of diseased vs. healthy CD46 mutation carriers has not been performed in detail yet. In this study, we comprehensively analyzed clinical, molecular, immune-phenotypic, cytokine secretion, immune-metabolic, and genetic profiles in healthy vs. diseased individuals carrying a rare, heterozygous CD46 mutation identified within a large single family. Five out of six studied individuals carried a CD46 gene splice-site mutation causing an in-frame deletion of 21 base pairs. One child suffered from aHUS and his paternal uncle manifested with adult-onset systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Three mutation carriers had no clinical evidence of CD46-related disease to date. CD4+ T cell-intrinsic CD46 expression was uniformly 50%-reduced but was comparable in diseased vs. healthy mutation carriers. Reconstitution experiments defined the 21-base pair-deleted CD46 variant as intracellularly-but not surface-expressed and haploinsufficient. Both healthy and diseased mutation carriers displayed reduced CD46-dependent T cell mitochondrial adaptation. Diseased mutation carriers had lower peripheral regulatory T cell (Treg) frequencies and carried potentially epistatic, private rare variants in other inborn errors of immunity (IEI)-associated proinflammatory genes, not found in healthy mutation carriers. In conclusion, low Treg and rare non-CD46 immune-gene variants may contribute to clinically manifest CD46 haploinsufficiency-associated immune-dysregulation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Biallelic mutations in LIG4 encoding DNA-ligase 4 cause a rare immunodeficiency syndrome manifesting as infant-onset life-threatening and/or opportunistic infections, skeletal malformations, radiosensitivity and neoplasia. LIG4 is pivotal during DNA repair and during V(D)J recombination as it performs the final DNA-break sealing step. OBJECTIVES This study explored whether monoallelic LIG4 missense mutations may underlie immunodeficiency and autoimmunity with autosomal dominant inheritance. METHODS Extensive flow-cytometric immune-phenotyping was performed. Rare variants of immune system genes were analyzed by whole exome sequencing. DNA repair functionality and T-cell-intrinsic DNA damage tolerance was tested with an ensemble of in vitro and in silico tools. Antigen-receptor diversity and autoimmune features were characterized by high-throughput sequencing and autoantibody arrays. Reconstitution of wild-type versus mutant LIG4 were performed in LIG4 knockout Jurkat T cells, and DNA damage tolerance was subsequently assessed. RESULTS A novel heterozygous LIG4 loss-of-function mutation (p.R580Q), associated with a dominantly inherited familial immune-dysregulation consisting of autoimmune cytopenias, and in the index patient with lymphoproliferation, agammaglobulinemia, and adaptive immune cell infiltration into nonlymphoid organs. Immunophenotyping revealed reduced naive CD4+ T cells and low TCR-Vα7.2+ T cells, while T-/B-cell receptor repertoires showed only mild alterations. Cohort screening identified 2 other nonrelated patients with the monoallelic LIG4 mutation p.A842D recapitulating clinical and immune-phenotypic dysregulations observed in the index family and displaying T-cell-intrinsic DNA damage intolerance. Reconstitution experiments and molecular dynamics simulations categorize both missense mutations as loss-of-function and haploinsufficient. CONCLUSIONS This study provides evidence that certain monoallelic LIG4 mutations may cause human immune dysregulation via haploinsufficiency.
